MIKE:

A few days ago, Mike said to "Daniel2":

> There were lots of pictures and the story-line in the book "Min{
> Roope-Set{" (which is one of those Italian hardcover books 
> (originally "Io, Paperone") containing lots of Barks' stories) 
> "I, Uncle $crooge"

Then I asked Mike:

> Huh? Was this entire message meant to me? What is it about?

And he answered:
 
> No, most of it was meant to David, but his name just disappeared :) 
> Sorry...

Now I ask: Is this a comment on the lost Scrooge cartoon, or was it 
also meant to David? If it's meant to me, then I'd like to know if 
your referring to the original Barks-drawings of the cartoon.
 
>> ["Treasure of Marco Polo" is] about a civil war in Unsteadystan 
>> (read: Vietnam) and here are sure a lot of explosions in the story. 

> Is it a good adventure then? What does Scrooge has to do in Uns...?

It is a strange adventure, because it takes place in a war. The story 
is about Scrooge going to Unsteadystan, because a jade elephant he 
ordered, wasn't delivered because of the war there. Scrooge wants to 
get that elephant himself. 

But I think I would be a "spoiler" when I tell you everything, it's 
better that you get to read the story yourself... Tell me if that 
isn't possible.
